A Nat Phillips own goal in the 93rd minute earned Leicester City a dramatic 1-1 draw against West Bromwich Albion at The Hawthorns. Aston Villa loanee Samuel Iling-Junior had marked his first West Brom start with a superb solo effort after just 10 minutes, and for a long time it looked enough to deliver Albion's first home win over the Foxes in 15 years.
Leicester controlled much of the possession and tempo but struggled badly to turn that dominance into clear chances, registering only one shot on target before stoppage time. West Brom, organised without the ball and increasingly dangerous on the counter, created and then squandered a series of opportunities to kill the contest, none more glaring than Josh Maja's late miss, before Phillips' misfortune at the death ensured the points were shared.
Iling-Junior's Dream Full Debut Puts Albion in Front
Ryan Mason made three changes from the side beaten at leaders Middlesbrough, handing a debut to on-loan Southampton defender Charlie Taylor and a first start to Aston Villa loanee Iling-Junior, while Marti Cifuentes named an unchanged Leicester XI from their goalless draw with Coventry City. The visitors began on the front foot and West Brom, usually keen to dominate the ball under Mason, found early spells of possession hard to come by.
